All published scientific research is wrong in some way.

That is a good example of knowledge that is so well understood by people with formal education in science that it’s taken for granted.

It can seem revelatory to people without that education. But science is only what people make it to be. If you have an idea for how to make scientific knowledge better, by all means go for it.

But if your idea is just that scientific knowledge could be better, well, join the club. Every scientist on Earth agrees with you.

That's not what I'm talking about.

I'm talking about fields where one study includes 40 tests each of which has a 1 in 20 chance of being statistically significant by random chance, and the 2 results that happen to pass that laughably low bar are published.
